We Cut From the Start.

Many merchants get all they can for their
goods during the height Of the season and
rely on alleged low prices to work off the
surplus stock on the eve of new season.
We think differently. We make it a rule
to try and sell our goods NTH the season,
being satisfied with a continual small profit
in preference to a high-priced squirt" and
then big stock to carry over at the end of
the season. In other words, we put the
lowest living prices on our stock from the
start, and do not trust to luck or below
cost" sale--that oary-headed old chestnut
TO work off what is left. So much for the
wedge. Now for the maui to drive our
arguments i'll.
Our stock has been augmented by our
hOLiddY selections, comprising special gar
ments, Suits, Overcoats, Neckwear, silk
Handkerchlefs and Furnishings for the gala
season. many novelties, all gems of the
manufacturers good taste. We have q
pretty line of Prince Albert Suits, not only
the well-known blacks and blues. but in
mixed goods. Also dashing line of four
button Getaway Suits. In short, our entire
stock indicates the merchant tailor rather
than the ready-made dealer, without the

"EvANGELINE's" BIG HIT.
The Theatre Crowded With De-
lighted Audience.

The Theatre Crowded With a De-
lighted Audience.
Theatre-goers were surprised last night
when they dropped into the Theatre to find
what an immense audience Rice's ''Evange-
line" had attracted. The galleries were
crowded, and vacant seats down stairs were
exceedingly few. The extravaganza was
most heartily received, and if prolonged
applause and repeated encores
are criterions, then Savannah
Endorsed the praise bestowed
everywhere upon this most unique and mu-
steal Of comedies. 1t has never been pre-
scented here in better style. The costumes
were dazzlingly beautiful, and the women,
too, for that matter. The chorus is COM
posed of girls who, in their beautiful cos
tunes, make up an enchanting picture, and
one not soon to be forgotten. The leading
people sing and act well, and the many
bright points of the play are admirably
brought out. The music is catchy and me-
lOdious, and the songs were encored
again and again. Evangeline is
made up of a multitude of bright things,
and by some happy fortune all dull ones are
left out. The only regret expressed last
night was that there was an end to the play.
The extravaganza has not been seen here in
seven years, but it is still the same mirth-
provoking piece, and last night it made just
as big hit as ever. 1t will be produced at
a matinee to-day and again tonight.
